Kroger: What a way to end the year!

I did coupon match-ups last night for the Kroger P&G New Year's Savings deal and realized how many mfc coupons I had and ones from P&G esaver loaded onto my Kroger card. I'm so glad I took the time to match them up because after mfc coupons, esaver & $20 taken off my bill I only spent 62 cents of out pocket for the 20 items above! Happy New Year!
